Arriva weighs merger with French rail operator

Arriva on Thursday revealed that it was involved in “preliminary” discussions with SNCF, the state-owned French rail operator, over a possible merger with the UK firm that will include all or part of Keolis, its transportation operations.

A potential deal would create a European transport conglomerate with revenues of nearly €6bn ($8.36bn).
